And do you really think I’m a fool?

Demar Desu

does a husbandman

part with his plough all because

he rents somewhere new?

    You mean renting the plough or the house and land? Good one Demar

    • Demar Desu

      The land, house and land… whatever I can’t afford at this point..

        Life is not fair to the poor. Justice must be purchased

        • Demar Desu

          Yet it seems the poor enjoy their lives the most

          • sorenbarrett

            That is the nature's fairness

          • Tristan Robert Lange

            Demar, this carries real defiance! A change of ground does not require surrendering the very thing that enables someone to cultivate it. Sharp piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
